✈️ AA Status Match, Chase 100K Ending, & Hyatt's New Award Limits
Hey there, points enthusiasts! Welcome to another episode of Miles & Points Daily. I'm Lucas, and I'm excited to share today's biggest miles and points news with you.
First up, some huge news from American Airlines. According to View from the Wing, American is now offering Executive Platinum status matches to JetBlue's top-tier Mosaic members. If you're a Mosaic 3 or 4 member, you can get instant Executive Platinum status through June 30th. This is a pretty aggressive move by American after JetBlue walked away from their partnership.
Speaking of American Airlines, they're opening an incredible new Flagship Lounge in Philadelphia. Get ready for boozy gelato, custom cheesesteaks, and hidden cocktails. This might just be their best lounge yet, and it's opening this summer.
A major credit card offer is ending soon - the Chase Sapphire Preferred 100,000 point bonus will end on May 15th at 9 AM Eastern. This is the best offer we've seen in four years, requiring just 5,000 dollars in spend within six months. If you've been thinking about it, now's the time to act. You can get the card through our link in the shownotes.
Some interesting developments in the hotel loyalty space - World of Hyatt is adding new limits to their award gifting program. Members will now be limited to receiving 10 gifted awards per year. This seems like a reasonable change to prevent abuse of the system.
For those interested in earning more points on mortgage payments, there's an interesting strategy being discussed on View from the Wing. You'll soon be able to double-dip, earning points through both Bilt Rewards and the Mesa card on your mortgage payments.
And here's a fantastic new credit card offer - the American Express Business Gold Card is now offering 100,000 Membership Rewards points. This is one of their best welcome bonuses yet, and you can find the application link in our shownotes.
